About Compass Health Center
Compass Health Center, founded and led by psychiatrists, provides immediate access to specialized, age-based mental health care for children, teens, young adults, and adults who need more than traditional outpatient therapy while avoiding unnecessary emergency room visits or inpatient hospitalizations. Intermediate care, such as Partial Hospitalization (PHP) and Intensive Outpatient (IOP) programs, often serve as the solution for an individual or family in crisis without the need to enter an emergency room. Its multi-disciplinary approach includes psychiatry, group, family, and individual therapy, medication management, and specialty care to treat a wide range of mental health symptoms and diagnoses. Compass Health Center has programming in Illinois, Maryland, D.C., and Virginia, with plans to expand to Wisconsin and Minnesota. The company is in partnership and accepts most commercial insurance across their locations.
